A Good Life Wasted or Twenty Years as a Fishing Guide
by Dave Ames
GLOBE PEQUOT ( THE LYONS PRESS, FALCON), Aug 2005

Humorous, poignant tales by a Rocky Mountain fishing guide, who has “wasted” his life in the wilderness. When Dave Ames started guiding, Rocky Mountain locals rode horses & dug camas roots; now they’re trading stock options on cell phones. The collision of stone & computer ages was short-lived, but the deep-rooted themes of this book remain. 6x9 inches, 256 pgs.
